Firstly, if the direction is TODEVICE, then dirty data in the streaming cache is impossible so we can elide the flush-flag synchronization in that case. Next, the context allocator is broken. It is highly likely that contexts get used multiple times for different dma mappings, which confuses the strbuf flushing code and makes it run inefficiently. Signed-off-by: David S.

I was gently reminded that there are per-cpu forms of the EXPORT_SYMBOL macros. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

Only the address needs alignment of mask bits, length should work with a relaxed alignment check. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de> [ This is take 2: make the length check be for 16-byte alignment, not just word alignment. That should hopefully keep everybody happy, while still allowing CD writing with DMA ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

When I sent in the patch adding the code for the kernel to tell the firmware about its capabilities on pSeries machines, I included the function to give the capabilities to firmware but somehow forgot the hunk that adds the call to the new function. This patch adds the call. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

It cannot work properly, so just ignore it in drr and rr multipath algorithms just like the random multipath algorithm does. Suggested by Herbert Xu. Signed-off by: Pravin B. Shelar <pravins@calsoftinc.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch adds is_multicast_ether_addr() to go along with is_valid_ether_addr() and friends. It then changes is_valid_ether_addr() to use the new macro, and fixes up the comment on that function to move implementation details out of the API doco.

Add tg3_nvram_lock() and tg3_nvram_unlock() calls around tg3_halt_cpu(). It is possible that the bootcode may be loading code from nvram during this call and stopping the cpu without getting the lock may cause uncompleted nvram data to be left in the nvram data register. Subsequent calls to read/write nvram data will fail. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Add a reset kind parameter to tg3_halt() so that the RESET_KIND_SUSPEND parameter can be passed to tg3_halt() before doing offline tests.

This improves the bridge local receive path by avoiding going through another softirq. The bridge receive path is already being called from a netif_receive_skb() there is no point in going through another receiveq round trip. Recursion is limited because bridge can never be a port of a bridge so handle_bridge() always returns. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Avoid poisoning of the bridge forwarding table by frames that have been dropped by filtering. This prevents spoofed source addresses on hostile side of bridge from causing packet leakage, a small but possible security risk.

The call to io_block_mapping was creating an invalid BAT entry because the value of BCSR_SIZE (32K) is too small to be used in a BAT (128K min). This change removes the io_block_mapping call since these registers can easily be mapped using ioremap at the point of use.

The error checking for emulation of load string instructions was overly generous and would cause certain valid forms of the instructions to be treated as illegal. We drop the range checking since the architecture allows this to be boundedly undefined. Tests on CPUs that support these instructions appear not do cause illegal instruction traps on range errors and just allow the execution to occur. Thanks to Kim Phillips for debugging this and figuring out what real HW was doing.

This patch adds on-chip PCI bridge support for the PQ2 family. The incomplete existent code is updated with interrupt handling stuff and board-specific bits for 8272ADS and PQ2FADS; the related files were renamed (from m8260_pci to m82xx_pci) to be of more generic fashion. This is tested with 8266ADS and 8272ADS, should work on PQ2FADS as well.
